Cow Elk

Another hunting season has come and gone that Hunter, Madelyn nor Kory has drawn a tag. So when we learned that the Wild Life Game Management had cow elk tags after the season that could be bought for $50, we jumped on it. We bought one for Hunter and Madelyn. 


The first 2 trips we were skunked! The third trip we drove around the corner and came right up to the heard. To say we were NOT ready was an understatement. The dang guns were still in their zippered bags in the back seat, while the bullets were up front on the floor. Oops!  But moving as quickly and quietly as possible Hunter got the gun ready, climbed out of the truck and shot off 2 rounds, Kory thinking Hunter had missed grabbed the gun and fired off another shot while the herd went running. We knew one had been hit. Luckily it didn't get to far before he dropped. She had been hit twice!
Hunter was pretty excited! 

We went a handful of more times but never did find that herd again! Madelyn never did get the chance to shoot at one. Maybe next time.....
